L'Éléphante du magicien

Started off great w a good premise, captivating animation.

... then the plot absurdities start to plonk in one by one until there's such a deluge of nonsense that all sense of connection to the plot or the characters are gone.

Yet AGAIN another animation which throws all its budget on the visual graphics and a tiny tiny pittance on good writers who can flesh out a viable plot with characters that can hold the viewers interest.

But here we have rubbish plot, rubbish dialogue, characters which held early promise all plonked down the tunnel of showy absurdity.

Good visual animation but the nonsense plotting is for animation trash heap.

Director: "Looks really good! Just one thing, have you ever seen a cloud before?" Animator: "No." Director: "Me neither. I'm sure it's fine."

This one's got quite great deal of tender, genuinely moving scenes. And for the most part the animation looks striking and original despite the obviously lower budget.

(Aside from the clouds, which I know are supposed to look odd but they're just...so obviously not clouds.)

The compelling story is unfortunately often dampened by poor dialogue. It's unbearably contrived and stilted, too often clumsily telling us what has already been expressed visually just in case we're too dumb to pick up on characters' emotions on our own.

But there's so much vibrant content and heartwarming elements that it's impossible to disregard this film, or even dislike it, entirely.

Upon reflection, it seems that numerous individuals share my sentiment that while the animation style was slightly off, the storyline was exceptional, and the scores were remarkably good. The characters, brought to life by compelling voice actors, were truly delightful, and each one of them deserves commendation.

The storyline was completely original, unlike anything I had seen before. I particularly enjoyed the magical elements of this animation; it evoked the nostalgic feel of classic Disney animated movies. I believe it is a film that appeals to all age groups, and I highly recommend it. Check it out!.

The story was wonderful. In my opinion, it is not only worthy of attention from an artistic-literary point of view, but also worthy of attention and reward from all of them who are trying to make the planet earth a better place for living. Especially the activists of children's rights, animal welfare and right and human rights.

Of course good stuff about this work more than just story for example the faces of most of the characters were designed very pleasantly.

I can list some complaints about the lack of work in some technical larts of this animation but with a more comprehensive view, we can easily ignore them.

First off, the plot is predictable, and you can guess where the tale is headed, but that doesn't mean it's a bad thing because this film is meant to make you feel happy and heartfelt. That caused us to marvel and enjoy the journey, and there were a number of things that contributed to my enjoyment of the journey. First, the directing was excellent; I was astounded by how, in some essential scenes, the camera switched to the character's point of view, giving me the impression that I was a part of the setting they were in. Second, the sound effects and visuals did a lot to make me enjoy the film; for example,the stunning sound effects inspired awe and wonder and were so calming and uplifting that it seemed as though the characters were in the room because of how expressive and lifelike their voices sounded. The character movements were fluent and natural, giving a lifelike experience, and the character animation was so lifelike and detailed that it felt like they were real. The brilliant and fascinating colors of the film made for an exciting and immersive experience. The unpleasant aspects of the movie are kind of concealed, so there aren't many of them. I believe they have discovered the recipe for the ideal animated feature.
